(Please let me know if there are any broken links or incorrect or incomplete information)
Whats at stake:
On Tuesday, April 1, special elections will take place in Florida for two previously Republican-held House seats. Let us explain why these campaigns are so important:
Republicans House majority is razor thin. Any Democrat we elect right now is another Democrat fighting against Trump and his allies' extreme, harmful agenda.
Like DNC Chair Ken Martin has said, part of his vision is to compete everywhere, and especially as Democrats overperform in special elections throughout the country we need to do our part to compete in states like Florida.
